Select ALL the correct words in the passage.
Which two words or phrases in this excerpt from Kurt Vonnegut's "Report on the Barnhouse Effect" portray Professor Barnhouse as an
exceptional person?
There is an understandable tendency to look upon Professor Barnhouse as a supernatural visitation. The First Church of Barnhouse in Los
Angeles has a congregation numbering in the thousands. He is godlike in neither appearance nor intellect. The man who disarms the world is
single, shorter than the average American male, stout and averse to exercise. His IQ. is 143, which is good but certainly not sensational. He is
quite mortal, about to celebrate his fortieth birthday, and in good health.
